Elastic Eliminates Per-Endpoint Pricing for XDR<\/b><\/p>\n

Elastic Security ends the \u201cendpoint tax\u201d to deliver world-class XDR protection without per-endpoint fees<\/i><\/p>\n

SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nElastic (NYSE: ESTC), the Search AI Company, today announced it is eliminating per-endpoint pricing for Elastic Security XDR, the platform rated at 100% protection by AV-Comparatives<\/a> in its 2025 Business Security evaluation. By ending the \u201cendpoint tax\u201d, the agentic security operations platform is enabling organizations to achieve world-class protection across their environments while also helping them achieve full endpoint coverage, all while reducing total cost of ownership by up to 70% compared to other platforms.<\/p>\n

\nPer-endpoint pricing discourages teams from fully defending all systems by forcing them to decide which assets are worth protecting and which are not. In an era where AI enables attacks to move at machine speed, leaving parts of an environment unprotected is a risk organizations can no longer afford to take. By removing per-endpoint pricing entirely, Elastic Security enables full ecosystem protection and visibility across every asset without incremental costs.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cOrganizations continue to face growing attack complexity, fragmented toolsets, and increasing operational overhead,\u201d said Jan Brilke, CEO at AV-Comparatives<\/b>. \u201cAt the same time, completeness and efficacy of cybersecurity offerings and their ease-of-use can influence how broadly protections are deployed, potentially creating visibility gaps. A high score in our Business Security Test and Endpoint Prevention and Response Reports indicates that it is possible to achieve high levels of efficacy while simplifying coverage and reducing these trade-offs.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n“How do I sleep at night?\u201d said Jack Simpson, security operations lead at Thought Machine<\/b>. \u201cWe ran an incident simulation to test the proactive capabilities of Elastic Defend\u2014a critical component in securing our organization. We created reverse shells in various formats to see how Elastic would perform when our analysts weren’t watching. It was fantastic at triggering, defending, and categorizing the attacks. I sleep well knowing Elastic Defend is protecting our organization.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nElastic Security XDR is built into the Elastic Security open, agentic SOC platform, giving teams unified detection, investigation, and response across their full environment without per-device charges or a separate cost model to manage, and without manually stitching together data from multiple tools. Elastic is also expanding its focus beyond prevention and deep endpoint visibility into Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) to bring an end to these compromises and help teams move from detection to investigation faster while critical evidence is still available.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cOrganizations shouldn\u2019t have to decide which systems are worth protecting, and with AI drastically evolving the threat landscape, they can\u2019t afford to,\u201d said Mike Nichols, general manager of Security at Elastic<\/b>. \u201cPer-endpoint pricing turns coverage into a budget decision. We don\u2019t believe in that at Elastic. We\u2019ve built the highest-rated XDR in the industry and are making it available without that tax, so security teams don\u2019t have to choose between full coverage of world-class protection and manageable costs.\u201d<\/p>\n
